at OpenRate Format: co-founder / CTO / technical partner Location: Kazakhstan, preferably Almaty or Astana Sphere: AI, HoReCa, local business, reviews, creator economy, B2B SaaS Stage: early-stage startup / MVP / pilot stage
OpenRate is a platform for restaurants and local B2C businesses that helps them manage reviews, negative feedback, UGC, micro-influencers, and personalized AI recommendations.
We are building a product where: — negative feedback first goes to the establishment as a private recovery case, so the administrator can quickly address the issue before public escalation; — businesses can offer guests compensation, OpenCoins, or a repeat visit to restore trust; — satisfied guests turn into verified reviewers and micro-influencers; — businesses can assign personal missions to users; — recommendations and promo codes are tied to actual receipts to ensure transparent ROI; — based on verified reviews, visits, receipts, and user behavior, we are building an AI assistant that can provide personalized recommendations: where to go, what to try, and which places best suit the user's taste, budget, and context.
Our Big Idea: OpenRate turns reviews into actions, guests into trusted micro-influencers, recommendations into confirmed sales, and verified data into a personal AI assistant for local choices.
We are seeking a Full-stack Developer / CTO Co-founder — an individual who can take ownership of the product's technical aspects: architecture, backend, frontend, infrastructure, CI/CD, code quality, and future team development. We need not just a task-oriented developer, but someone with a founder mindset: one who wants to build a product from scratch, make technical decisions, launch an MVP quickly, collaborate on the product side, and grow with the company.
